If I try to connect to a database within a function, I get the following error. Why is this?
MySQL Connect Error : Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/Private/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
function getUserPermissions() {
if ($_SESSION['permissions'] == '') {
// Connecting, selecting database
$link = mysql_connect($shs_MySQLServer, $shs_MySQLUser, $shs_MySQLPassword)
or die("MySQL Connect Error : " . mysql_error());
etc....
}
}
